Prepare, teach, and share in one place

Everything for the lesson in front of you: last week's focus, attendance, repertoire and practice, plus rough notes you can structure into a clear summary for the family afterwards.

Trio lesson workspace for one student, showing last lesson's focus, attendance, the note editor, active repertoire and this week's practice on one screen.
The lesson workspace gathers last week's focus, attendance, notes, repertoire and practice on one screen. Example data.

From last lesson to this week’s practice

Open the next student and last week’s focus is already there, so you teach from where you left off instead of reassembling context. Record what changed, structure your rough notes, choose what the family sees, and hand off this week’s practice. Next week’s lesson then opens with today’s notes waiting for you.

  1. PrepareLast week, in front of you

    The lesson opens with last lesson’s focus, recent attendance, active repertoire and practice since you last met. Turn on Show last lesson to read what you covered beside each section as you write. It is a reference only, never shared.

  2. TeachOne surface for the lesson

    Mark attendance, tick off active repertoire, and capture notes by typing or dictating. Set or review this week’s practice without leaving the lesson.

  3. ShareYou decide what the family sees

    Structure the notes, mark each section Visible or Private, then complete the lesson. Nothing reaches a family until you share, and you can reopen, unshare or export a PDF afterwards.

Turn rough notes into a clear summary

Type or dictate a few rough lines during or after the lesson, then choose Structure notes. Trio organises what you wrote into your template sections, using your recent notes and any template hints for context. It is optional (Manual mode lets you write straight into the sections), and you always review and edit before finishing. AI structuring never records or listens to a lesson; it only works from the text you enter.

Nothing slips through the cracks

The wrap-up worklist keeps a running list of every lesson that still needs a note, oldest first, and flags anything overdue. Each row is Missing or Draft so you can see at a glance what is left. Switch to All lessons to search your full history by student, family or note content.

Built on the rest of your studio

Lessons draw on your repertoire library, so the pieces a student is working on are one tap away, and the AI importer can pull in piece details and practice suggestions (the catalogue metadata, not the sheet music itself). Practice you assign from the lesson flows straight to the family, and completed notes stay searchable for as long as you teach the student.

Common questions

Does Trio record or transcribe my lessons?
No. You type or dictate the rough notes yourself, and AI organises that text into your template sections. There is no automatic recording or transcription.
Do families see my notes automatically?
No. A note stays private until you choose to share it, and only the sections you mark Visible are shared. You can reopen a note as a draft or unshare it at any time.
Do I have to use AI?
No. AI structuring is optional, and Manual mode lets you write straight into the sections. When you do use it, it draws on the studio's shared monthly AI credits, included on every plan.
Can families get a copy of a note?
Yes. You can export a completed note as a PDF that preserves line breaks, so practice instructions stay readable.
